"Gloriously dumb".

It's true to say that some bands and/or songs make a living with soul and society crushing ballads. It's equally true that a song being gloriously dumb can...and often does...move us in other ways.

To this day, I still love "The Sweet".

I could say that they still invoke memories of my youth, innocence, and simpler times.

The truth is probably that they're just gloriously dumb and I love it.

I adore The Sweet. Teenage Rampage forever!

An idea concert for me would be 30 minutes of The Sweet, 45 minutes of Slade, and an hour of T. Rex.
